Word of caution - I installed HTC keyboard that is posted in another thread in this forum, and personally didn't like it. But after uninstalling, things got wonky with my Nexus. Minor, but still some issues. ATK - the fonts got all small. BatteryLife - the coloured separation bars got all messed up.
I did a hard reset to fix. Luckily, I have online backup setup with my Gmail account. I personally won't be installing anything HTC anymore.
Just FYI - not to tell people to not do it, but I had weird things happen from just installing the HTC keyboard. Although minor, I can only imagine what kind of headaches I'd get with installing Sense. No thanks. No until my Nexus becomes a backup phone.
